Chapter 150 - Perfect gift

"You're the only person I can trust to take this position."

"But what about your secretary? Would you find another?"

"I'm sure, we would can find someone. All you have to do is agree and the job is yours."

Su Bei beamed, "Yes, Yes. Thank you. I won't disappoint you, President Yan."

Yan Mei nodded, "Congratulations Vice President Su."

"Thank-"

Yan Mei's cellphone vibrating interrupted Su Bei.

"Hello, Fen-Yan Mei." A familiar voice spoke up.

Leng Shao find it a little hard to adjust calling Yan Mei by her new name so he always calls her Feng before he corrects himself.

Yan Mei chuckled, "I don't know if you're dumb or you are just forgetful."

Yan Mei teased her friend when she heard his slip of calling her Feng Mei.

Leng Shao chuckled, "Hmm. How are you?"

"I'm good. You?" She asked grinning at Su Bei who was blushing.

"I'm fine. Do you want to have lunch with me? I had to leave the city because of some business I just came back. Sorry for disappearing without a trace."

Yan Mei played with her pen, "Hmm, lunch sounds interesting but I'm busy today maybe tomorrow. How does that sound?"

"Okay, don't overwork though. Take care of yourself and see you tomorrow."

"Hmm. My assistant says Hy. You remember her right?" Yan Mei suddenly said making Su Bei widened her eyes. A trace of panic flashed through her eyes and she pointed her finger at Yan Mei who just smirked at her.

"Oh, Miss Su. Yeah, I remember her.  Hope she is good?"

Yan Mei chuckled, "Why don't you ask her yourself? She is here, I'm putting the call on loudspeaker."

Su Bei shook her head as she blushed. 

"Hello, Miss Su." Leng Shao voice sounded making Su Bei's heart skip a beat.

"H-hi."

"Hope you are good?" Leng Shao asked softly.

"Hmm. I'm good, You?" 

"I'm good too…."

The line went silent for a while with both of them not knowing what to say.

Yan Mei busted into laughter, wiping her tears.

"God, both of you are soo cute. I'm totally shipping you guys."

Leng Shao at the other side frowned as he felt a little uncomfortable. He wanted to say he wants no one but her. But deep down he knew it wasn't possible.

She was already taken by someone.

Leng Shao coughed to hide his awkwardness.

"See you tomorrow."

He hung up the call without waiting for Yan Mei's reply.

"So….." Yan Mei started raising her brows at Su Bei once the call ended.

"So...what?"  Su Bei asked embarrassingly as her face turned crimson red.

Yan Mei laughed at her friend's face.

"Oh my.. don't tell you're blushing from just talking to him on the phone. What would you do if he was right in front of you?"

Su Bei bit her lips, "Oh shut up!"

She snapped making Yan Mei chortled.

"Yes, Vice President Su. I would definitely shut up."

Su Bei rolled her eyes and ignored Yan Mei.

"The launching of the new collection is in a few weeks. If you reveal your marriage at that time I'm sure the stocks of the company would rise."

Yan Mei furrowed her brows.  Even though if she reveals that she is married to Lei Zhao, her company stocks would rise. She didn't want to.

They have so many enemies now and she didn't want to risk Lei Zhao's life.

"Hmm… I would think about it. Find me a new secretary. Also, I would introduce you to the company as the new Vice President during the lunch? How?"

Su Bei smiled and nodded. "Alright."

"Okay, I would finalize everything after a meeting with the shareholders and executives. Schedule a meeting."

"I'm sorry, Boss. I couldn't protect you."

Ye Xing bowed his head in shame, standing in front of Lei Zhao.

Lei Zhao sighed and rubbed his temples. 

"Don't blame yourself, Ye Xing. I know you did your best. If I had not been too excited to get back home I would have seen that something was wrong."

Lei Zhao said tapping his fingers on the table.

"How are you doing?" Lei Zhao asked softly.

"I'm okay, Boss."

Lei Zhao nodded.

"How is the investigation going?"

Ye Xing furrowed his brows and shook his head.

"Sorry, Boss. It's a dead end." Ye Xing heaved a sigh. Whoever caused the accident must be a very dangerous person and powerful too. His boss has so many enemies that it's hard to find the person responsible for all of this.

A trace of light passed through Lei Zhao's eyes as he looked at Ye Xing saying nothing. He knows the longer they delay in finding the person the more worried his wife would be.

A few minutes passed by before Lei Zhao finally spoke.

"Hmm What about my wife's issue. Have you found out what happened five years ago?"

Ye Xing nodded, "Yes, I have finally find a clue. I'm sure by the end of the month we would get all the answers."

Lei Zhao nodded, "Hmm. What about Mr. Wang. What has he been up to?" Lei Zhao asked finally looking at Ye Xing.

"Mr. Wang would be having wedding with Miss Shen next month."

Lei Zhao's lips curved into a sardonic smile. "Oh? Then I have to find a gift to congratulate him."

Ye Xing frowned when he heard Lei Zhao. Doesn't the boss hate Mr. Wang? Why would he send him a gift.

"Ye Xing….". Lei Zhao called out.

"Yes Boss!"

"Hurry, those investigation about what happened five years ago. I don't care the resources you would use but I need those reports by the end of the month. It would be the perfect gift for Mr. Wang."

Lei Zhao said with an evil smile on his face.

He can't wait to see the look on that bastard face when he finds out that he had thrown out a gem to pick up a stone because of his ego and trust issues.
